Ammunition

Ammunition is what you put in your guns. While Crimson Skies featured a wide range of ammo types, Crimson Skies: High Road to Revenge did not.

Slug
The standard ammo type, slug ammunition is basically little lead bullets you fling at hundreds of miles per hour into your foes.

Armor-piercing
Sharply-pointed rounds, AP ammunition is very effective at stripping away a targets armor, but only slowly damages its fuselage. Killing an enemy fighter with AP rounds takes forever.

Dum-dum
Dum-dum rounds are designed to squash and spread out on impact. This makes them significantly less effective against armor but absolutely lethal against unarmored targets - or those that have had their armor removed by AP rounds...

Explosive
Explosive ammunition is all-round more effective than any other type, but not as efficient as an AP - dumdum combo.
